Happy New Year!

It's New Year's Eve and
time for my last musical post of the year. I have three songs for you
this week that are each beautiful in their own way, and each, to me,
tells a story of our hopes and dreams for the coming year.

The first song should
more accurately be classed as a Christmas song, but I knew I had to
include it this week instead, as it definitely represents a message
of hope for the future. The video also makes me cry. Every single
time I watch it.

The title of the second
song will probably tell you instantly why I've included this one. The
lyrics will just illustrate the point :-)

Finally, just to prove
that I'm a traditionalist at heart, I've included the one song that
will be sung around the world as the clocks strike midnight.

Thank you to the people
who have welcomed and supported me in the past nine months. I've had
such fun, and learned so much. I've shed a few tears for some of you,
quietly behind my keyboard, and cheered for others. I can't wait to
do it all again next year.

Wonderful songs and all full of so much emotion. I cried also during the first one. You always pick the perfect music for the moment. I have missed you. I have been away. It's too long of a story, but it is good to be back. Happy Happy New Year.

Fireworks woke me from a nice dream on New Years Eve for about 30 minutes to an hour. Then loud people banging on things and whatnot outside the door and running around in the hallway outside my apartment.

The next day I spent in front of the television, ass firmly planted on the couch, and switching from football games to the House Party marathon on Oxygen.
